    Prenatal-Birth: Biosocial, Cognitive, and Psychosocial

    My mother was 27 years old when she found out she was pregnant with me. She was a healthy, single parnet at the time. No apparent health problems noted. She talked, played music and also sang to me all the time. The stress level of my mother was okay. She worked full time and helped my grandma with my cousin. The everyday stressors were present, but there was nothing considered high stress. While my mom was pregnant, the majority of her friends were also having children, this made it easier.
